photo of Connie Mack Stadium
I have a photo of Connie Mack Stadium that appeared in the magazine section of the Sunday Philadelphia Bulletin in the 1962. The photo is accompanied by a brief story about the head groundskeeper at the park, Ted Farr. If anyone has a stack of old Sunday Bulletins up in the attic, the date of the article/picture was July 29, 1962. Great photo and a neat story. If I had a scanner I would scan it for all to see. I spent many a day of my youth in that ballpark
Another favorite item is a tape from a 1957 Brooklyn/ Chicago Cubs game with Sandy Koufax pitching for the Bums. The game was at Ebbets Field and Vin was behind the microphone along with Jerry Doggett. Sandy had a no-hitter through the first 5 innings. Brooklyn won the game 7-5 and Sandy got credit for the win.
